Sorry for the tl;dr essay here.

Was going to delete this and not even post it.
But I know by doing so it would make me never want to come back and I'd go right back to my old ways of just giving up.

So I'm posting this in hope of getting some help!
Shadow again I'm not too happy with.
Also I think I went and made it too dark again.. idk how I'm doing that.

I was going to color it but I thought I better stay away from that for now because I'd have no idea how to even start.
Thought I better work on the basics first before even attempting color.

It was supposed to be a little tiny ass tomato I have in my house.

Also I was wondering about the brushes.
I'm just using a normal hard round brush (not sure if that's correct to use)
For the size I keep changing it manually and I have pen pressure on.
Should I also use the pen pressure thing that changes the size depends how hard I press?

Double post, can't edit last.
Anyways.

Hard Brush for lesson number 1 (Didn't finish background cause I have to do something atm so I'll post it without background also)
--|--

Though it could be better (had a lil trouble blending the top and I think my reflection light is still messed¿)
I think it's 100x better than my first but you guys can be the judge.
Thanks a lot Shattered I'll be working more on lesson one soon than moving on to the next!

Edit: After posting and looking at it again I think the spot that the light is hitting the sphere should have been a little higher on the ball compared to the shadow/reflection. Let me know if I'm right ><

The highlight should be a circle, and should be the brightest part following by midtones going into the shadowed tones.
